Chelsea will hope to make it back-to-back wins in the Premier League when they travel to Nottingham Forest in front of the TNT Sports cameras at the City Ground on Saturday. A last-gasp win over Liverpool ended a three-match winless run, while the under-fire Ange Postecoglou is still searching for his first win as Forest boss. Chelsea edged Forest 1-0 in this fixture last season on the final day.

Nottingham Forest's clash with Chelsea on TNT Sports will mark the return of Premier League football after the latest international break.
Under-pressure Forest boss Ange Postecoglou is desperate to record his first win since taking charge last month, while Chelsea are riding high after a dramatic victory over champions Liverpool.
That win came at an important time for Chelsea, who were without a win in three Premier League matches and in danger of slipping further from the leaders.
Forest, meanwhile, are winless in nine matches across all competitions and have lost their last three, currently languishing just above the Premier League drop zone in 17th place.
The last meeting between these two resulted in a crucial 1-0 away win for The Blues on the final day of the 2024/25 season, which helped them to secure UEFA Champions League football as Forest qualified for European football for the first time in 30 years.
But Forest's return to the European stage has not gone as well as they may have hoped. They opened their UEFA Europa League account with a hard-fought away draw against Real Betis, before a disappointing home defeat to FC Midtjylland.

Chelsea, however, lost on the road to Bayern Munich in their Champions League opener before beating Benfica in west London in what has been a topsy-turvy start to the season for Enzo Maresca's side.
